I honestly have no idea who Johnny Fairplay is (other than he was on a reality show) and I'm always annoyed when he calls the show. Not sure why.

[disneyspy]

who?

[Hottub]

Nice callback.

Is it more artistic than you are, and more artistic than most people think they are? Then no, Franklyn didn't shoot it.

Johnny Fairplay blows. Hopefully he'll finally get famous and stop boring Ron and Fez fans with his pointless calls

[PanterA]

Whats wrong with him calling?

I think it's pretty cool that Johnny Fairplay calls the show. He's never been on for that long. He's been funny on the show.

I think that he might over do it with the ladys man act, and maybe...just maybe, it might be hard for you guys to hear it because of......mmmmm jealousy!!!

well, whatever the case, I dont see a problem with him calling the show.

Yes, jealousy is my main concern...

I enjoy when someone like him calls and tries to turn the R&F audience into marks - Now the judge has decreed that Danny Bonaduce and have to do do publicity together - or whatever that shit was.

He doesn't call in as a fan, he calls in as a bullshitter trying to put his celebrity status over on the listeners.

Joy Mohr's calls are much more legit

[sailor]

jf's a douche.

[PanterA]

He doesn't call in as a fan, he calls in as a bullshitter trying to put his celebrity status over on the listeners.First off the guy IS a fan of the show. He's proved it in the past. Second, why are you busting on the guy for plugging? That's what you do when you have a product and are on a national radio show. His product is himself. That's what he's trying to sell to everyone. What's the difference if he was a writer pushing his book? Just because the guy actually likes and listens to the show means he cant plug? Tell that to every comic that goes on O&A including Jimmy.

So I dont get the beef with the man.

[Gvac]

I just find his calls boring as sin. Probably because I have no idea who he is and I despise reality TV.

[JerseyRich]

So I dont get the beef with the man.

Maybe if he actually started taking BEEF to the show.

A nice porterhouse or some delicious sirloin burgers.

Fuckin' starvin'.

[Ron Marie Douglas]

Fairplay? Isn't that the guy who used to blow Piper?

[Gvac]

Maybe if he actually started bringing BEEF to the show.

A nice porterhouse or some delicious sirloin burgers.

Fuckin' starvin'.

Now yer talkin'.

[PanterA]

I just find his calls boring as sin. Probably because I have no idea who he is and I despise reality TV.Thats a more tangible opinion, but we all know whats said about opinions

How can you even compare this idiot to Jimmy Norton? That's ridiculous!

But, bringing it back to R&F, when an author calls in for a plug, he has an interesting body of work that Ron will talk to him about. Fairplay calls in to talk about his latest supposed threesome, or pump up some phoney lawsuit in a professional wrestling kind of way, or some other shit that he has made up.

It's not beef, I don't have any personal feelings of hatred toward the guy, I find him disingenuous. I don't enjoy what he is selling or what he does for the most part. Not a big deal with me, he doesn't call often enough to really be a deal.

But, the thread was here, so I posted my opinion - I thought that was ok...

See, if you knew who he was you'd be excited.

He's about to do a reality TV project in which he wilZZZZZZZZZZZZZZZZZZZZZZZZZZZZZZZZZZZZZZZZZZZZZZZ ZZZZZZZZZZZZZZZZZZZZZZZZZZZZZZZZZZZZZZZZZZZZZZZZZZ ZZZZZZZZZZZZZZZZZZZZZZZZZZZZZZZZZZZZZZZZZZZZZZZZZZ ZZZZZZZZZZZZZZZZZZZZZZZZZZZ.

BELIEVE ME I'm NOT comparing him to Jim Norton in the least. I'm explaining that when you are on a nation radio show and have a product, you'd be a fool not to plug away.

[conman823]

The best thing Johnny Fairplay ever did was get thrown on his worthless face by Danny Bonaduce. It should happen to him every Tuesday, at 11:26AM, and be aired live on CNN.

I do not know why he inspires this hatred in me, he just does.

Dude. He'd do it.
Just for the air time.

[conman823]

I only hope that the last headline he's in involves a Buddy Holly Plane Ride complete with Johnny Fairplay, Steve-O, and the Cast of the Hills.

Fair enough. There is nothing wrong with plugging - I hear Mafia Life has a cigar - but I digress.

I get annoyed with reality shows that are just reality show people trying to keep in the light, and when it gets brought to R&F I get annoyed. I don't feel like he usually brings anything to the discussion outside himself, so that's my point.

I will grant that when he called this last time, the topic was reality TV, so he called and talked about his friends, and only plugged on the way out. That's how I like to see it. Call about the topic, plug on the way out.

Anyway, I really don't care this much about him.

Cheers -

so someone acts like a jerk and if you think "hey, that guy's a jerk" the other guy wins?

ah, but that only works if it entices me to buy their product.

[PanterA]

ah, but that only works if it entices me to buy their product.That's true, but who's going to watch a stupid reality show without drama? That would be the end of reality shows...wait a minute....

Fuck Johnny Fairplay!

[conman823]

How is that the case if I am completely aware that he thinks that way? I am no reality show mark. I fucking HATE reality television. I'm also a 20+ year wrestling fan so I'm not so easily sold on "heels".

It more like Johnny Fairplay (and all the other in my dream plane crash) stand for whats wrong with T.V., and entertainment in general. I just don't get how so much of the country CARES about these people.

[sailor]

i don't have gvacian hatred for reality shows, but i've never watched one minute of survivor or big brother. in fact i've never seen johnny on any reality show. my only exposure to him is on here, on the radio or in interview-type shows.

[conman823]

Fuck Johnny Fairplay!

Did you watch the first few seasons of "The Real World"? I LOVED that show because they were REAL back then. I track all this modern Fake reality drama to the Real World episode where Dave pulled the covers off of that dumb broad and it became a HUGE issue. Then there was a slap or some shit in the mix and it got HUGE ratings.

That and the 1st Survivor which was GREAT, but after that it became cookie cutter and boring. "Fairplays" fake tears about his cunt Grandma dying was brilliant because he played on everyone stupid "emotions", take your money and GO AWAY!!

I just don't get how so much of the country CARES about these people.Well they also voted for Obama. This country has a taste for shit. It's not Johnny Fairplays fault people eat this shit up. I think he's found the flaw and exploits it every chance he gets. You just cant hate a guy that has the balls to do it.

[conman823]

Same here, except I do hate reality TV, I was all like "Who the fuck?" and my girl filled me in. I was all like "So why is he on ______?" and she was like "He's a star now". Then I threw up in her face and shot my TV.

Thats a true story, except for the parts that were a lie.

I just don't get it, and I guess I never will.

[PanterA]

"Fairplays" fake tears about his cunt Grandma dying was brilliant because he played on everyone stupid "emotions", take your money and GO AWAY!!If they keep offering him money, how can you blame him for taking it. He makes that money by driving people crazy. That's his livelihood.

[PapaBear]

I can't stand him OR his wife when they call.

[Friday]

he is annoying as hell on TV but i do like that he is a genuine fan and admirer of Ron and Fez and not just some semi-celebrity who claims to have heard of them.

and really... he could be you, or me, or anyone on this board... just tuned up a few notches.

he has silly fun and makes money doing it... and personally, i can't really fault anyone for that!
